Certains disent que trois points sont plus stables que quatre points, mais selon mes résultats de test, c'est bien mieux qu'une solution de montage à trois paliers. Cela rend le lit d'impression plus verrouillé et plus stable.
Le kit est livré avec
1x support de roulement quadruple en fibre de carbone de 6 mm 4x roulements linéaires Misumi LM8UU 4x Support de roulement 10x vis en acier M3 pour support de roulement
Installation
1. Retirez les vis du lit chauffant et retirez le lit chauffant, conservez la vis d'origine et l'entretoise, nous l'utiliserons plus tard.
2. Dévissez les 6 contre-écrous pour libérer le support d'origine du roulement, dévissez le support de courroie.
3. Coupez les attaches du support de tige pour libérer la tige et retirez le roulement d'origine. Après avoir retiré le roulement d'origine, veuillez utiliser un chiffon en microfibre pour nettoyer la tige.
4. Installez le roulement Misumi LM8UU sur le support en fibre de carbone, utilisez le support métallique et la vis pour fixer le roulement. (À cette étape, assurez-vous que le roulement est placé dans la bonne position)
5. Installez les deux tiges dans le roulement et remontez-les sur le cadre, réinstallez le support de courroie sur le support en fibre de carbone.
6. Placez l'entretoise retirée de l'étape 1, la plaque en fibre de carbone, nous avons fait un trou d'évier d'entretoise pour faciliter le maintien de l'entretoise en position. Placez le lit chauffant et utilisez la vis de l'étape 1 pour verrouiller le lit chauffant.
7. Refaites le calibrage de la première couche, définissez la valeur à 0 et ajustez-la à la bonne position pendant le calibrage.
Maintenant tout est prêt ! Profitez de l'impression !

This was kind of a late night lark. I'd seen this upgrade for the Mk3 for a while and pondered whether it was a gimmick or not, and I'm pleased to say it's a genuinely good upgrade. It has reduced the noise of my Mk3 considerably. I haven't noted any significant increase in print quality, but the old drone of the bed is gone and that's completely worth it.

Best upgrade for my i3 MK3S+
I immediately saw improvements to my prints after installing this improved design print bed mount. It also eliminated the known issue of Y-axis travel noise. A pricey upgrade but very much worth it.

4 bearings are better then 3
I am a machinist and have never liked the fact that there were three used in the design of the PRUSA. I purchased this update and must say I am quite impressed. The greatest part is that I can print much faster now that the garage is lighter. Echoes in the Y axis are almost completely gone. Even at 200% printing speeds over the defaults from Prusa. Also the internet forum buzz about 4 bearing create binding while 3 avoids it, that is nonsense. Just tighten your Y axis rods with the garage at the front then the back screws with the garage slid all the way back.

Early days review NewBee Drone 4 bearing upgrade.
Following discussion on the internet relating to Y Axis platform rotation, on the Prusa Mk3 Series printers,
I was Gifted a NewBee Drone, 4 Bearing Upgrade for my Prusa Mk3S Printer.
'Previous Internet wisdom' had said that Prusa used a three bearing Y platform, to prevent Jamming in the motion, due to 'Over Constraint'
After receipt of the four bearing Y platform, I Experienced a simple install, essentially a direct replacement for the original Prusa Y axis Platform. (even though the supplier said the bearings were pre lubed... I lubricated them before assembly.... so that I KNOW! how well they have been lubricated :-) )
the New Platform had recesses for the Y axis / heatbed spacers which made installation much easier than the original setup.
the new platform is manufactured from Carbon Fibre Plate, with embedded threaded inserts for all of the fittings (I don't know how carbon fibre will stand up to printing high temperature filaments in an enclosure. I only print low temperature filaments at the moment and the carbon fibre has not demonstrated any negative effect in this environment)
Following installation I noticed less free play in the rotation around the Z axis (which is the design intent)
However I also noticed a little additional resistance in the Y axis movement. (Definitely no indication of jamming that the 'internet wisdom' had said would happen This may be a function of the new bearing dust seals, and the new lubricant application, in comparison to the original setup which has been in use for yers!)
I have successfully printed some small prints since I received the upgrade.
but I have not done a full volume print, or a print with significant mass, which may cause the Y motor to exhibit difficulty moving the Y platform.
all in all a good experience so far (Obviously there is also a liklihood that the four bearing Y platform will 'Bed in' further over the next few prints which would reduce the additional resistance on the Y axis)
thank you for the opportunity to experience the four bearing upgrade.

Fantasic Upgrade to Prusa MK3s
This is a fantastic product upgrade kit for my Prusa MK3s printer replacing the bed with this carbon fiber unit and bearings, system is lighter and less micro vibrations also got the aluminum fan shroud no chance of melting this one, great products and well made would recommend for anyone wanting an upgrade
